[joe_collector]

Elektra's Bronze, but we also had LOEG.

[Jayman]

Don't forget Barb Wire!

[valiantman]

Ronin???

 

Good point, not a close enough connection for Ronin comic vs. movie... I'll drop that one.

[Solar]

History of Violence & Road to Perdition = Similarly named graphic novels

 

From Hell = Taboo #?

 

Ghost World = Graphic novel by Dan Clowes

[joe_collector]

"Not close enough" as in "none", right?

[Rodey]

Don't forget:

 

John Constantine.....Saga of the Swamp Thing #37

[RDK]

Fantastic Four = Ultimate FF?

[joe_collector]

Thanks a lot, I had just forgotten all about that POS crapfest.

TMNT in Gooblygook or whatever it's called.

[valiantman]

TMNT in Gooblygook or whatever it's called.

 

The 1990 movie is too old for the list... I guess the 2007 version might qualify.

 

Gobbledygook #1 (1984) has an advertisment...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 (1984) is the "real 1st appearance", right?

[sckao]

TimeCop, The Mask?

 

Alien vs Predator

 

 

[valiantman]

TimeCop, The Mask?

 

Not released in the last 10 years...

though they (and The Crow) would be good for a list of slightly older movies.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 (1984) is the "real 1st appearance", right?

 

Correct

[trevorlsmith]

Not in comics first, but "The Incredibles." Fantastic movie too.

Not in comics first, but "The Incredibles." Fantastic movie too.

 

Incredibles is one of my favorite "comic book" movies, even though it is Basically a rip off of FF.

 

Speaking of;
